This fotopic lark,do you have to pay to get that voting lark?

I can remember seeing on a XC 170 something odd. Usually, when it is out of service, it displays:
Not In Service
-Sorry!
But when I saw one:
Cardiff Central
-Sorry!

I liked it how on 158s, the display translated from English in to Welsh intermittantley, so it would say for example:
Cardiff Central / Caerdydd Canolog

Does anyone the full list of destinations programmed into a 158, code numbers run from 001 - 999 does anyone have the full list.

 

[Juniper Driver]

I get on the 1588XX and the 159/0 + 159/1s but I doubt there is a full list from 1-999.

Mind you, About a year or so back 2x SWT 158s were operating the 22:XX service to Portsmouth Harbour with the destination panels reading

Portsmouth Harbour
Basingstoke
Fort William
St Ives

How about that for 2x 158s

Ive also seen Mystery Excursian, and strangley Public Service - despite the latter one being a ECS.

Mind you, ive seen a good few on the Voyagers, including Birmingham New Street, Next Station Foxhall Junction...

Aswell as Bejing via Gobi Desert and one from only a few weeks ago, arriving into Sotton Central was a XC 221 With Tunnel Vision !

I also seen some funny ones on 158, but this time on Northern ones, with Mystery Excursion and Ramblers' Tour sometime coming up on the York - Leeds shuttles.
